" Finally tried Vino Bistro after hearing friends rave about it, and let me tell you, it did not disappoint! The attention to detail in every dish was remarkable, especially the flavors. I had their special that evening, which was a seafood risotto. The only downside was that I felt the portion was smaller than expected, considering the price. Still, the quality was top-notch. Definitely returning to explore more of their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" Vino Bistro is one of the best places I’ve discovered in Sarasota! The tapas are not only fresh but also beautifully presented. My favorites were the scallops and the tuna tartare. Each dish had its unique flair, highlighting the chef's creativity. I will admit, portions may be on the smaller side, but the flavors will leave you wanting more! Coupled with impeccable service, I can’t recommend them enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" I've visited Vino Bistro multiple times, and each time, my experience has been fantastic. The tapas are always fresh and serve as a great introduction to their wine offerings. I do find the portions a bit small relative to the price, which can be disappointing, but the flavors are simply divine. The ambiance allows for an enjoyable evening, whether for a date night or just catching up with friends. " (*Curated Review*)

" Stumbled upon Vino Bistro while walking through downtown Sarasota and was utterly impressed! The wine list is extensive, catering to various tastes, and the staff are incredibly knowledgeable. The tapas we ordered, especially the pizza, exceeded my expectations with authentic flavors. The only downside for me was the ambient brightness; it felt a bit too much for a dinner setting. However, that didn't take away from the quality of our meal. Looking forward to returning and trying more dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful surprise! I recently visited Vino Bistro and immediately fell in love with its cozy feel. The tapas we shared were bursting with flavor and the wine selection was impressive. I really appreciated the personal touch from the staff, especially Theresa, who made us feel right at home. I can't wait to come back for another round of their amazing charcuterie board and a glass of red wine. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a gem in downtown Sarasota! " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Vino Bistro was mixed. On one hand, the atmosphere is quite nice, and the service was warm and accommodating. On the other, I was taken aback by the small size of the portions for the price. The quality of the tapas was good, but I expected larger servings based on other reviews. If you don’t mind smaller tapas sizes, the food is tasty and the wine selection is extensive. I might give it another try in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" I always have a great time at Vino Bistro! From the moment you enter, the atmosphere is cozy and inviting. I’ve enjoyed multiple small plates; especially loved their charcuterie and fresh pizzas. The staff is attentive and always eager to help you choose a wine from their impressive selection. I highly recommend making a reservation on weekends due to the live music - it adds a special touch to the ambiance! " (*Curated Review*)
